TARDIS Environmental Scanner

A lightweight bronze device marked with faint Gallifreyan glyphs on its left side. Its right side hosts three small amber lights that pulse in steady rhythm when powered, flickering erratically if overloaded. A narrow rectangular indigo screen etches brief environmental data into the air above its surface, legible only when the unit tilts slightly forward. Romana grips the device with both hands, her fingers finding muscle memory in the etched grooves, reinforcing the sense that it is both heavier than its size suggests and ceaselessly straining under the weight of the TARDIS’s erratic temporal navigation.
